Don’t keep suicidal thoughts to yourself

Police, security companies and CPFs tended to a tragic suicide scene in Meyersdal on August 2 which took place in a parking lot around 7.30pm.

Mondeor Victim Support Unit would like to inform people if you have thoughts of suicide to not keep them to yourself. If you feel you will be judged or labelled as crazy know that there is help. Reach out to people close to you or to organisations. Talking openly about depression and suicidal thoughts can save a life. Don’t let concerns of saying the wrong thing keep you from reaching out to family and friends.

If you are dealing with trauma and suicidal thoughts reach out to a support group, such as the Alberton Victim Support Unit where you can speak to Tammy du Plooy who can be reached on 082 371 7053. The Mondeor Victim Support Unit can be reached on 076 152 9705.
